What is the simplest form of 16y to the power 3 over 20y to the power 4?
4y3(4+5y)Improved Answer:-16y3/20y4 = 4/5y
How do you solve 16y-9ycubed equals 0?
16y-9y3 = 0 y*(16-9y2) = 0 y*(4-3y)*(4+3y) = 0 So y = 0 or (4-3y) = 0 or (4+3y) = 0 ie y = 0 or y = 4/3 or y = -4/3
How do you solve when you have a negative exponent?
A negative exponent is the same as 1/(the positive exponent). For example, 2^3 is (2*2*2) = 8. 2^(-3) is 1/(2*2*2) = 1/8. So, just calculate the positive exponent version, and put it under 1.
How do you solve for a negative exponent?
That depends what you want to solve. In many cases, it helps to remember the basic definition: for example, x ^ (-3) = 1 / x ^ 3. (Using the symbol "^" for powers.)
How do you solve an exponent?
An exponent means "this many times." So, 4 cubed (to the power of 3; a 3 exponent.) is 4 NOT times 3, but 3 TIMES. So it is 4x4x4(=64). Or, 5 to the power of 5 is 5 times itself 5 times, so, 5x5x5x5x5(=3,125). 3 to the power of 9 is 3 times itself 9 times. Basically, the exponent tells how many times you multiply the number by itself. Does that help?
Solve by the subtitution method 15x-20y 7 5y -3 10x?
15x-20y= 7 5y-3 +10x
What is the simplest form of 16y to the power 3 over 20y to the power 4?
4y3(4+5y)Improved Answer:-16y3/20y4 = 4/5y
How do you write a decimal using a negative exponent?
When you have a negative exponent (for example 3^-3) you could make the recipricol of the number. So, this would be 1/3^3. Then all that you would have to do is solve for the exponent ( so in this case the answer would be 1/27)
How do you solve 16y-9ycubed equals 0?
16y-9y3 = 0 y*(16-9y2) = 0 y*(4-3y)*(4+3y) = 0 So y = 0 or (4-3y) = 0 or (4+3y) = 0 ie y = 0 or y = 4/3 or y = -4/3
What is 6xy over 16y in its simplest form?
6xy/16y = 3x/8 (as long as y≠0) = 3/8x

What is the exponent of (-3)(-3)(-3)(-3)(-3)?
the -3 is multiplied by itself 5 times, so the exponent is 5: (-3)×(-3)×(-3)×(-3)×(-3) = (-3)^5
How do you get the exponent?
you get an exponent when you multiply EXAMPLE 10x10x10=1000 that is an exponent NO DONT THINK THAT IF THE EXPONENT IS 3 YOU MULTIPLY IT BY 3 NO WAY JOSE
How do you solve negative integral exponents?
A negative exponent is simply the reciprocal of the positive exponent. So simply remove the negative sign and find the reciprocal. Thus, for example, 5-3 = 1/53 = 1/125
What is the answer to this 17-9y equals -3 plus 16y?
y = 4/5 or 0.8
